Krrigi Huppyo Ronh~u~sh~~, 1993, 30. I6 I Hirano. K. el cl/.. .Scki~un &g&c 164. (In Japanese) Invesigation of the catalytic activity of pulverized pyrite in a 5-L batchautoclave. Pyrite is pulverized to a size smaller than I I’m in a wet-type or dry-type mill which i\ applicable to a pilot plant. Pulverized pyrite is readily oxidized by atmospheric oxygen and loses its catalytic activity. so it needs treatment under an inert atmosphere and reactivation after oxidation. Catalytic activity of pulverized pyrite increases with decreasing average particle size. In the case where the average particle \ize is smaller than I ,,m. pulverized pyrite is nearly comparable to synthetic iron sulfide which is the specified catalyst of the pilot plant.

IIOI-I This paper discusse\ the influence of pitch composition on its thermal behaviour and emphasizes gas chromatological analysis of their volatile fraction. The pyrolysis of nine coal tar pitches was studied hy thermogravimetric analysis and derived thermogravimetry. The results showed that high coke yields were obtained from pitches with a volatile fraction rich in both highly condensed structures and alternant peri-condensed systems.

(In Japaneke) The paper describes how, in order to develop an effective method for the manufacture of aromatic chemicals from coal liquids. dehydrogenation of heavy naphtha and light (Ii1 was studied. The coal liquids were produced hl thr NEDOL process from Illinois No.6, Wyoming, and Tanitharm coals. It way found that irrespective of the original coals, the heavy naphtha and light oil fractions can be transformed into those containing naphthalene and methylnaphthalene. respectively, as the major components.

Because of the high sensitivity of the -TGA initrument and comblexity of the system studied, strictly controlled operating conditions are essential to obtain reliable and comparable data. The effects of several operating parameters of TGA data of a CDL and of CDL-catalyst mixture were systematically investigated. Standardized experimental conditions were established.

Details how a Ni-W/lJSY-A1201 hydrocracking catalyst was developed in order to produce lighter fractions from middle and heavy distillates of coalderived liquids. Although the catalyst showed considerable improvement in hydrocracking activity, changes in local structure of active metal and accumulation of carbonaceous material indicated further areas for its improvement.

Yaginuma, R. and Yoshii, T.. 1993, 30, 169-172. (In Japanese) It is known that Cu(OH) is easily decompounded thermally and reduced to copper through cupric oxide at <300”C in hydrogen gas. The rate of liquefaction was examined using CUE and its decomposition products. CuO. CuzO, and Cu, as catalysts because some active catalyst species may he formed during decomposition,

Sasaki, M. ef nl., Srkifart Krrgaku Korgi /fnppyo Rotfhumllrc, 1994. 3 I. 25% Japanese) Examines the effect of selenium dioxide on decarhoxylation of Yallourn coal under nitrogen pressure of 1.0 MPa at 473 K. It has been shown that selenium dioxide accelerates decarhoxylation of aliphatic carboxylic acids in coal structure. However, the coal structurt slightly varies due to decarhoxylation. Liquefaction of Yallourn coal using selenium and selenium dioxide as a catalyst war also studied. Both selenium and selenium dioxide catalysts indicate the same yields of pyridine- and toluene-soluble fractions. Selenium dioxide is reduced to selenium under the heat treatment conditions. The results indicate that the catalytic effect of selenium becomes a dominant factor of Increase in cr,nversion rather than decarhoxylation of coal.

(In Japanese) This paper presents the results of an investigation using two and three dimensional SIMS imaging techniques to examine the feasibility of catalyst recovery from liquefaction residue. Residue\ were obtained from a I ton/ day NEDOL PSU plant which uses Illinois coal as feedstock and synthetic pyrite as catalyst. The results suggested that the SIMS imaging provides a promising technique for the examination of liquefaction residue.

(In Japanese) This paper examines the coal liquefaction method composed of four processes of slurry formulation, coal liquefaction. liquefied oil distillation and solvent hydrogenation comprises mixing a part >!f or whole middle oil with total amount of heavy oil obtained from the dtstillation process and feeding a fixed ratio of middle/heavy oil to the solvent hydrogenation process for control of the amount of recycle solvent. The method prevents the fluctuation of the fraction of aromatics of the recycle solvent and recycle solvent with high-hydrogen donor ability can be gtahly manufactured by short time.
